Beakman...

just in case you were wondering whatever happened to Beakman (aka Paul Zaloom), from Beakman's World (no, not the Muppet - that's Beaker!) - apparently he's a "solo political satirist (hunh?), puppeteer (Flavor of the Month!), and performance artist (the Mime of the '00's?), who lives and works in fabulous Los Angeles."

i always did think that Beakman kicked Bill Nye the Science Guy's ass...

oh yeah, and he's queer too. *8-)

Family reunion...

i really didn't mean for it to happen this way...

all i wanted was a little picnic on race day - like we did when i was a kid - at eagle creek park. i mentioned this idea to my cousins...joanie has now turned it into a huge family reunion, with a luau theme and a list of 42891202 things to do between now and the day before memorial day.

so we got together at marian's today, to get invitations together. well, at least it was another excuse to see Dominic - i feel so sad for all the other godparents out there, thinking their godchild is the cutest, when in fact it's ME that has the cutest of all! and i'm turning into the Human Pillow! i swear, he just loves how squishy i am, and apparently i have some sort of sleep-inducing qualities. he was really cranky, nobody could get him to go to sleep...so i held him and within two minutes he was OUT...

alas, there've been some storms rolling through tonight and i shouldn't be on the computer...
